Wimbledon final and soft drink ads

Leisure and Pleasure, Thoughts

Watching right now Wimbledon men’s final between Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer (btw, hoping that Djokovic will win it). Almost every ad between games and sets are from producers of soft drinks (Nestea, Coca-Cola, Schweppes) and energy drinks (unknown RedBull competition). They are promising fun, health life, enjoyment and similar crap. If I can give you some advice in this area I can tell you just don’t buy anything like this. Think logically… If they have so much money to spend on advertisement in prime time of biggest sport events…read more

Instagram crashes on start – when big company make things wrong

Thoughts

I am having iOS 6 installed on my iPhone (intentionally didn’t want to switch to ugly iOS 7) and yesterday on March 4th 2014 I installed the Instagram update. After doing this, the application is crashing on start. It doesn’t open. On opening the background graphic is showed very quickly and then everything disappear (crashes). It is the perfect example how big company can make a mess making millions of users angry. I thing they are aware of this. What is surprising for me is that the new update is…read more

System Administration, Technologies, Thoughts

Global warming or global cooling – what is more dangerous for an IT?

Technologies, Thoughts

I always thought that science is an exact discipline but having this conflict between climatologists and environmentalists where they can not decide and agree (with probability greater then 50%) if we are coming to the new ice age or the new melting age (global warming), I became sceptical. Maybe the opinion…read more

Working hard is not guarantee for prosperity

Thoughts

It is very important where we invest our life energy every day and to measure that every week (what we have done and what we have gained). Working hard on unimportant things in completely irrelevant when we talk about the prosperity because there is no added value. Spending time on quarrelling, worrying is complete waste of time, so don’t do this. The most important thing is to set the  goals and then work hard on the steps that can bring you more closer to achieving these goals – this is…read more
